Incredible Learning Resources Required after Disaster

Overview

District Ensures Education Continues

Paradise Unified School District's student population was highly transient after the devastating Camp Fire. Educators were able to collect enough data from i-Ready to compare growth from fall 2018 (before the fire) to spring 2019. Teachers who were able to implement i-Ready Personalized Instruction best practices saw results. Students At or Above Grade Level increased from seven to 32 percent in Mathematics and from 11 to 31 percent in Reading.

Testimonials

[Our students] were getting pretty comfortable with i-Ready before COVID-19, and now it is a major tool that teachers are using. When you can tell your students, ‘Get on i-Ready for 45 minutes a week,’ and you can track that, that’s huge for our teachers. And when we begin next year, we’re definitely going to start with i-Ready assessments.

— Tom Taylor, Superintendent, Paradise Unified School District
